Very fast charging of batteries diminishes battery capacity ( basic chemistry).

Charging times will remain too long (> 10 minutes) for at least a couple of decades.

Recycling of those batteries is still challenging.

If those battery packs catch fire they are very difficult to extinguish

The mining of the chemical components is very polluting indeed

So electric vehicles are ok if you do not do long distances (commuting).

Instead of recharging there should be international legislation that the battery packs should be standardised and can be changed quickly. In that case electrical vehicles (cars and trucks) can be a viable solution. As long as that is not the case there is not much gain in them imho
